Taking a monkey from the forest is wrong. Buying and selling them is wrong. But the biggest crime of all is maltreating or abandoning them.

Manina, a new picture

I think this is a wonderful picture of Maniña. Somehow we have caught him in a thoughtful pose. He has become the most popular person among visitors. He is a big monkey but gentle. He has a great personality. He is protective of the young ones in his care. Altogether a very loving person. I am told that he used to like horse back riding with his mommy, clinging to her and enjoying the wind through his fur. Unfortunately we have no horses here at Canaote but he is a great athlete on the swings and walkways in his garden.
